915 GAV and 9500GT.. Not working together..

[chat2arindam]

Dear Sir,

I have Intel original 915 GAV motherboard, Pentium 4 3.0 ghz Processor,1 GB Ram, Nvidia 6200 TC Graphics Card, 320 GB HDD, 400 watt iball SMPS. I recently purchased Nvidia XFX 9500 GT,1 GB,PCI Express 2.0 Card. When I am connecting the new card to my motherboard, the display is not coming. I have disabled the onboard Graphics.I am confused whether 9500 Gt is supported on my motherboard or the Smps(400 watt) is not sufficient to power my graphics card. Intel support team is saying that 915 doesn't support PCI Express 2.0 cards. The nvidia support team is saying that 400 watt is less to power the system. Please help. My new graphics card is lying idle.

Thanks and regards,
ARINDAM..

have you downloaded the drivers for your graphics card?

Graphics card may not be receiving enough power, and also since it's a pci-e 2.0 it may not be compatible with your mobo.
